Fiziksel açıklama
Woven silk and metal thread, plain weave ground, faced with silk satin and backed with roller printed plain weave cotton Main field: mid-blue ground with a strong weft rib, seamed along the central axis, patterned with a basic ogival lattice formed by a flowering stem in metal thread. The ground of each compartment is crosshatched with metal thread which surrounds a large boteh motif outlined with a leafy stem in metal thread, terminating in a red blossom and infilled with a flowering stem with pink, red and green blossoms. The botehs faced alternate directions in alternate rows. Warp: blue silk Weft: red, pink, green silk Metal thread: silver strip open S-wound on yellow silk. There are squares of a different, pieced, fabric added to the corners. These have a dark blue satin field decorated with offset rows of botehs delineated by two heavy outlines and infilled with a 12-petalled rosette and tulip, all in metal thread. In alternate rows the botehs face alternate directions. Warp: dark blue silk Weft: red silk Metal thread: untarnished silver-gilt [?] strip open S-wound on yellow silk and also on white silk. A pieced border joins the corner squares. It has a red plain weave ground with strong weft rib, decorated with interlocked lozenge lattice formed by leafy stems and similar cross hatching as in the main field, in metal thread. Each lozenge is decorated with a 5-petalled rosette, asymmetrically placed, carried on a leafy stem sprouting from the lozenge frame. The rosettes are in three colours: blue, green and pink. Warp: red silk Weft: blue, green and pink silk. Metal thread: silver strip open S-wound on yellow silk.
